You say these things like they are facts, like they're going to happen soon. Holter, Sinclair, Willie, Morgan, Schiff, etc have all been wrong for years now with their predictions, yet you parrot their words as if the predictions are going to happen next month. Do you *really* think these changes are imminent? Why would China want to show off their gold? What good would it accomplish? And a rising Yuan graph on most financial sites? You, sir, must be living in a different world that I am.

Yes i live in a different world then you. I believe what i post. Like my past posts, when i told people to own physical gold/silver over 12 yrs ago the crowd had your opinion. They saw no relevance in bullion. Today most everyone can see the writing on the wall and physical gold/silver is owned by the crowd. It is good to be ahead of the game. All the authors have been wrong w/ timing but not w/ their facts. I do not understand cryptos so i will not invest or recommend them to anyone. The world is looking for alternatives to the USD so cryptos will probably do OK. The present/past rules at some point will change. This rule will not change, he that owns the gold makes the rules. Today that is China/Russia. Remember China's gold army? The manipulation that keeps happening today will soon come to a end. It is very wise to own bullion and Chinese. Give it time to unfold, then there will be no disagreements.....

A stock market crash (a.k.a. correction) is in the offing either within the next few months or two years. This is the traditional pattern. Those who are experienced know what to do. The inexperienced, unfortunately, will compound their losses when that happens. Those who need some of their gains normally will take it now. Those who have a longer horizon will just continue to invest. If the market corrects in a substantial way strategic selling and reinvesting will realize some capital loss tax opportunities. Also that is when money on the sidelines swoops in to scoop up cheap bargains!

I still don’t understand gold and silver but they seem to be more liable to hyping and manipulation. Therefore, much care has to be exercised when investing in those metals. A long term perspective may be in order here. If you are collecting as a habit and plan to move it on to the next generation, keep on enjoying your hobby!

February 2018US Stock Market "correction" Day#2Not yet a crashBut what do I know?I am just a Panda coin collector!

....By the way, Russia and China have both tripled their gold reserves in the last 10 years. If you use 2006, slightly over 10 years. If you use 2006 as a base line, Russia has gone from 600 tons to almost 2,000 tons. China, same thing, from 600 tons to almost 2,000 tons. Although, China no doubt has more ... the 2,000-ton figure is the official number, but they actually have a lot more than that that they keep off the books. The country is officially buying it, but the people are buying it also. I see a lot of interest in Australia and we just spent 10 days in Australia very recently and I see the same interest in Europe. The people who don't get it are Americans. I don't know why. Maybe it's because we have the dollar and the dollar's the major global reserve currency. Maybe Americans don't get out enough.

There's a surprising statistic, only 16% of Americans even have passports, 16%. That's the percentage who even have passports. Of those, most of them no doubt use them to go to the Caribbean, or Canada, or Mexico, or Bermuda. Maybe they take a trip to London or Paris once a year, Italy or something on a vacation. The number of Americans who have actually been to China or for that matter, Japan, Australia, or Africa, or anywhere else, is very, very few. Look, I don't blame people if they haven't been around, but you should understand that it's a big world out there and there's an enormous demand for gold, but I don't see it in America. I think Americans will be the last to catch on....

I think the safe haven is changing from USD to gold/silver minted in China. Give it time to unfold....

The opinions i like from Rickards is when he travels to the 3 refineries in Swiss? that accept, refine and supply the world w/ gold. His past articles says gold supply for these refineries is getting very low and 1 may refinery may close...

The drop is mainly due to cut in the dividend by 50%, forward dividend rate is roughly 4%.

The Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.175 per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2018. This represented a reduction from the quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share that we have previously paid to our stockholders.

Statement: I have no, none, zero inside knowledge of David Hall's actions, or anything else going on at PCGS, for that matter. I didn't even know he is a seller. That said, I can think of less obvious reasons that could explain the selling, but it is pure speculation on my part. I just wouldn't jump to any conclusions.
